Horrible_Hector

Bought an emerald coil. Here's hoping the stealth drive next week isn't red again.

Happy belated to  @IRaMPaGe @Findmartin @CookYouVillain @BoroVC @Plumbers Crack @jordie1892 @Commander_Undies and @ChaosGladiator !! 🤘
 
Happy Birthday to @Horrible_Hector and @evatom1
 
Cheers folks!  I hope you all had and have great days!

Congrats to 5 more FGers getting a first week completion of Vow. @Venom  @GazzaGarratt @TurboR56Mini  @SWAINEY84  and me. Many thanks to @Capn_Underpants  for subbing in late on! Think it was a 10 hour completion but determination won

We need to get it for @Bluebear  ! 7 hours of the 10 hours I reckon and only two drops !’

26 symbols is a bit overkill. Getting used to the official names is rough after a full day of using what we came up with. 
 
Week 1 raid complete was fun! Stressful at times and sometimes even the littlest things can end a run, but definitely a good time with pals. 
 
 
Hardest bit is definitely the encounter before boss. I won’t say much for those looking to stay blind, but it requires everyone to do at least 1 thing besides add clearing, which means more opportunities to wipe! 
But that just means it’s all the more sweeter when it gets done. 
 
GG to my week 1 clear team, to the remainder of my day 1 attempt team. 
 
Can’t wait to hop in with everyone else when we can!

I'd say a full on 2v2 crucible tournament, double elimination, could be sick. 
With 8 teams it could be so fun, especially if someone goes in to spectate and streams them all. 

Obviously people have jobs and what not, so it could take a while to accurately schedule it all. But if people commit to making time for it, I can see us getting it done over a weekend or two. 

We can even have it be a bit silly with weapon restrictions or something like that.

For the life of me I cannot remember your old PSN. 
 
You made the SilentHawkk account down the line. 
I only recently deleted some accounts and I deleted that one and kept SilentHawkk added. 

Edit.
Hulkum maybe? Or was that someone else. Ringing a bell. 

Here's a screenshot from one of Kyle's old videos. 



That's Kyle who, on his second alt account, almost aced our friends. And me on the other team as well, no kills that round. (Red Team)
The other Kyle, Seba, Jacob, You?, Mark, and I want to say that's Cal?. (Blue Team)
Fuck, man. Ten years ago. 


Edit 2.
I texted Kyle and turns out Hulkum was the American Joe. You're the UK Joe. So many shared names in this dumb community. Still, I know you had a name before this one.

Edit 3.

Found it. I'm good.

Well done to Sam @Capn_Underpants  who wins the Geralt Statue from the Witcher for 20th December! Enjoy matey! 😎

Well done to Hector @Horrible_Hector  for winning a voucher of his choice from December 19th! Enjoy mate! 😎

Would love to play SnD with you old fuckers. Set up some night, Lee. You know you have to do everything. 

I also had no intention of buying this one, despite buying two of the last three. 
I don't particularly enjoy playing these games alone. 

But I've been enjoying this one. It feels really good, and there's plenty of gun viability. 
I've only been playing Domination, both Core and Hardcore and I feel both are in good places. Maybe will step into SnD, but playing this one not in a party kind of sucks. 
Most of the maps are solid, despite there being less than ten. I only really dislike maybe one or two and not by much. 


And zombies. Oh man. I've been playing zombies since the first Treyarch game and while it is a bit different it's still so good. 
The fact that you can earn level xp, weapon xp, and zombie camos while playing means I can play multiplayer until I get a bit frustrated then head into a round of zombies, then back to mp without feeling like I'm losing progress. I'm so glad they did it that way. 

I don't like it. Why even call it prestige if all you're doing is continuing to level up without anything changing. 
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy there being progress after you reach the initial cap but they should have just called it something else. 

I guess I was just hoping for the same old: prestige, lose everything, do it all again. Wasn't broken, why change it. 

On average I get about 10k a domination game, sometimes more sometimes a bit less. So w/o 2x XP, it's going to be about 3 games per level. Eh.

Happy birthday @Horrible_Hector  Hope you have a good day mate! 👍🍺😎

The new player experience is seriously an issue.
DE, the developers, plan on reworking it soon as to be more appealing and not as complicated for new players.

At the moment, you sort of have to play with the wiki open. Or be playing with an expert and not afraid to ask questions. 
--

But these trailers are gorgeous. The introduction trailer specifically. They do a great job of showing off the three starter frames and making them look.. cool. 
The Duviri Paradox is indeed the new open world, but the things they are doing are amazing. A huge new lore heavy cinematic quest, this open world, a new expansion with spaceship battles. 

To top that off, consistent new Warframes, awesome guns, and awesome events.  It's F2P done right. I've never spent a dollar thanks to in-game trading, but I definitely will purely to support the developers.

Yeah, I'll definitely be giving this a shot. Just need to drop Jotuun, as unfortunately it just seems like a requirement. Great capacity and damage as a special slot.

You have to pick up the adventure from Ana.

Hi, yes. 
Borderlands, best series of games ever.. ish. We don't talk about the Pre-sequel.

I will definitely be investing hundreds, if not thousands, of hours into Borderlands 3. 
I have poured years of my life into Both Borderlands 1 and 2. I bought all the DLC for both of them. They could sell me a cardboard box and I would buy it.

They know their audience, and they know how to make a good game, fun loot, ridiculous story, good co-op. It's a fantastic formula and it doesn't look like they're messing with it much.  This is good.
A lot of people might think they're playing it safe, or making a mistake by not innovating. But the style of this game is what the players love. If they had made drastic changes, like the Pre-sequel, it wouldn't be as popular.

All in all, 9/13 cannot come soon enough. 
I was almost tempted to buy B1 Remaster, but I have played it too much and would rather starve myself of anything Borderlands until B3.

I thoroughly enjoy it. It definitely feels very smooth and like it always should have been. 
It's very good especially when you're running around with a melee weapon and a nullifier shows up, it's good for popping their bubble and then getting in there.

Sure
